Special Birthday Celebrations

by Lynn 27. June 2010 20:04

Valerie celebrated a special birthday on Sunday 27th June at Fallowfields. She invited 70 family and friends to join her and her husband for a birthday lunch.

I was so pleased the weather was perfect, Valerie kept telling me she usually has rain on her birthday, so it was nice to prove her wrong on this occasion.

We have received excellent comments since on the hospitality, which is always nice.

Kay and Paul's big day

by Lynn 26. June 2010 19:45

Saturday 26th June was Kay and Paul's big day. It was a wonderful sunny day with 96 guests enjoying the celebrations in Fallowfields lovely grounds.

Kay looked fantastic in a beautiful dress from Proposals Bridal Studio in Witney and Paul looked great and very proud in his wedding attire.

Kay and Paul had a civil ceremony at Fallowfields as well as their reception.

The restaurant and marquee looked stunning with a gold theme throughout; the chair covers with gold bows were supplied by Isis Chair Covers.

Mario from Immage Photography took many photos and has promised me some which I will put on the blog when I receive them.

The wedding was most enjoyable to work on and it brought back many happy memories for me as it was the same day as one of my daughter's got married last year.

Where did that year go?

Wedding Day

1st Wedding Anniversary -

by Lynn 24. June 2010 03:34
24 May 2010

Last June I got married at Fallowfields Country House Hotel. We were looking for one venue for both the wedding ceremony and the reception, seating 110 for a wedding breakfast. A number of young children would be attending our wedding so we needed to find a venue with a large garden, safe for them to run around. Furthermore, we wanted a picturesque setting for the wedding photographs. This venue was perfect for all these requirements. The children thoroughly enjoyed themselves running around and playing cricket in the field and our photographs have the most beautiful setting.
The wedding co-ordinator was very helpful with our preparations and also arranged a small marquee which was positioned to the side of the building on the grass in case of rain. In fact, it was sunny on the day so guests used it to shelter from the sun and it was used to serve coffee in the evening.
The staff were excellent. The restaurant manager organised everything on the day and it all ran very smoothly. After the wedding ceremony all the guests were shown into the gardens and the room was transformed for the wedding breakfast. The Oxford registry staff were excellent and peformed the ceromony perfectly. The wedding breakfast was very good and I loved my vegetarian meal.
Since we had hired the hotel venue's 10 rooms for close family and friends, the following day we were able to treat our guests to a falconry display, archery and shooting organised by the staff which rounded off a fabulous weekend.
Both sides of the family absolutely loved our venue and have not stopped talking about our wedding even though it will be nearly a year since we got married.

Hema.

While I was away, on June 3rd we had a lovely wedding for Rachel and Sam, they invited many family and friends to join them for their wedding celebrations at Fallowfields.

About the author

Introducing Lynn Trinder, Wedding & Event Manager at family run Fallowfields Country House Hotel. Lynn's role is to ensure that your wedding is unique. It is the most important day of your life, and we are ready to help you make the most if it.

"I have enjoyed working for Anthony and Peta Lloyd, the owners of Fallowfields since 1997. From 2000 my role has exclusively been weddings. Helping Brides and their families to create a really special day is a joy. With over 50 weddings a year, my experience will really help ease the pressure for you. As a Mother of a Bride myself, I also bring a unique perspective to the table. Most venues in Oxfordshire are known to me. To my mind Fallowfields is the greatest venue for weddings small or large.
 
The challenge of organising a really good wedding is the highlight of this job;every one is very special and I love to take the time and trouble to make them as personal as possible for each couple.

The team spirit at Fallowfields is second to none; many of the staff [like me] have worked here for years. Flexibility is our watchword and whatever you need, we will move heaven and earth to get it done wherever possible; from your own favourite dish to arriving on an elephant, we will do it if it is humanly possible [and legal].

I must mention the food - it is fabulous. Anthony's beloved farm provides vegetables, fruit and meat for the table. Rare breed livestock, sustainably produced passionately delivering to you great flavours".
